There has been a lot of recent talk of change in the New North End of Burlington, primarily via the recently completed North Ave Corridor Study. The recommended changes will be presented to the TEUC Committee on the evening of this ride. We're riding to show support for real change to the corridor, which is currently very bike unfriendly for most of its length.
We'll ride from Merola's at the intersection of Plattsburg and North Ave. all the way down to North St. where the current study ends. The ride will double back along Lakeview to end up at Scout & Company.
Usually, the Mayor is at The Bagel on North Ave on Wednesday mornings, so we might do a quick stop there as well.
Please spread the word, invite your friends to the ride (and to join the group). We're really hoping for a great turnout for this ride, since a strong show of support for much needed bike infrastructure on North Ave will help push City Council to support the changes we all want!
Meet up at 7:45 to decorate your bike, grab a bite, etc. Roll out at 8am.
A note of explanation: a bike train is a safe, road-sharing group ride. The goal is not to hog the road in a mass, but to ride in a long single-file line on the street as safely as possible. All traffic lights, stop signs, and traffic laws will be obeyed. Smiles and good vibes will be freely given.
